A twin lens reflex of some kind, perhaps an Argus Argoflex.

Researching the lens focal length and speed, I'll go out on a limb and say that
this is a Lubitel 2, TLR medium format camera. A cheap, Russian made camera that
borrows many Yashicamat features.

Yes it's a Lubitel 166. They are making a bit of a comeback. There is a bit of
a cult following these days (hard to believe) for these cameras.

Talk about cult cameras and comebacks, I'm playing around with a 35 year old
Polaroid 250 Land camera I found on an auction site.
